The Seattle Seahawks waived wide receiver Braylon Edwards from injured reserve, clearing the way for him to possibly return to the New York Jets, according to league sources.

Even though Edwards criticized New York's organization last week, multiple league sources said the Jets will consider bringing back their former wide receiver, either by claiming him on waivers or signing him if he clears them.

I made the thread about Edwards being waived but thought this news was worthy of a new one. With Holmes out for the year and Hill injured, the Jets are running out of WRs and are very thin there. Apparently Edwards will clear waivers tomorrow if no one puts in a claim for him.

It couldn't hurt, I guess. I just think people are exaggerating, just a bit, when they say he'd be their best WR, even with the chicken scraps they're working with. It's been a long time since Edwards had a good, heck, even a mediocre, year. Can't stay healthy, has a major case of the dropsies, and he's no spring chicken.

Maybe there will be chemistry with Sanchez, though. Who knows. He seems to be a really good guy off the field, so I'm glad he's still playing._________________

ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Tuesday the Jets released running back Kahlil Bell in order to make room for the wide receiver, according to a league source. Schefter was told the Seattle Seahawks waived Edwards from injured reserve on Tuesday, opening the door for his possible return to the Jets, who will reportedly claim him on waivers or sign him if he passes through.

It also says the Jets pursued a trade with the Seahawks for Edwards earlier in the season. Now they'll get him back for nothing.
